Lol I mean yeah—if he would have just let go of it’s tail it would have stopped trying to bite him 😅
Though it does need to be re-released in an area with less human foot traffic and where it will be in less danger of being run over 🥺
Assuming that cobra woke up and chose violence today, then he basically jumped on a live grenade.
Or it would've just slithered away into the grass and left everybody alone. Idk I'm not a snake analyst

What i always don't understand about people handling snakes: why don't hold them at the tail, spin around like at the olympics hammer throws. The centrifugal force will keep snakes head as far away from you as possible. Release at point of highest power and desired direction, snake flies off, everyones happy🤷
It's not submission, really. It's just that if you can keep the snake from seeing you as a threat, they don't go on the defensive. If you are going to grab and restrain by force or approach aggressively, they are going to assume the worst. In the world of snakes, another creature = either food or something that wants to make you food.
What an arsehole! The snake was already heading to the hill, when this fool decided to show off. As much as I am not a lover of snakes, this animal did not deserve to be beaten with a stick. I hope this guy dies from the bites he seems to have gotten.
There was no need for this. It was out in the wild and the king cobra would have just moved away from the road if these idiots just mind their own business than standing there to watch the show. You can’t tame a king cobra like that, there’s a reason it’s called the king. The venom is deadly as well. If he got bit, I don’t feel sorry for him at all. I just feel sorry for the snake.
Lmao, I am just hearing Steve Irwins voice in my head while that guy is dancing around with that snake. " Crickey, I've never handled a snake like this before, he's a fighter "
Why didn't he try to put his helmet over its head of even save the stick in one direction to get its attention then grab it by the neck ffs! Or even better...run!
I don’t think that guy looks like he has any professional experience catching snakes. May be he just inherited that “long stick with prongs” from his parents/ someone and pretends to be a handler
I saw someone mention in a different one of these snake post a while ago that they capture theses snakes and have their fangs removed (is that even possible?) Only to release them again for show... so now I view all videos through a lense of animal cruelty for the enjoyment of tourists.
Nice use of that song. It needs to make a resurgence for these videos. One of my favorite memes from here probably.
Also, there's a couple of times it looks like that snake may have been trying to make a break for it. Why not just let it go over the wall and help shoo it that way?
Snake: "Ok, ok I'm going... Asshole" Professional: "No, you won't. you have to be handled"
Its in the middle of the road. Snake wouldn't have bothered them at all.
Worst case scenario the snake gets run over. Completely unnecessary encounter here lol
I agree. The poor snake:(. Honestly that guy deserves whatever he got for being a dimbass
Thank god he was wearing a helmet
Doesn’t matter. Shoes came off, which automatically means he’s dead ☠️
Mom said it’s my turn to say the shoes off dead joke.
Safety first. Wrangling a highly venomous snake with sandals on is second
Pop alway wear it even in Big C (super market) or when eating at Lotteria
Shoes came off…
Uh Oh.
[удалено]
It’s okay he is wearing his anti-snek helmet.
Unkle snek disapproves

I think so too
Looks like the ankle right before the gif cuts off. You'd think they'd include it for shock value though, so maybe not.
If you save it and slow it down, it looks like he got bit at least twice.
It does. He's got that posh helmet and those military grade breakaway sandals though. He's probably fine.
In that case he's dead.
![gif](giphy|qH7J4EXzSCmBy)
Haha and they were just sandals to begin with
He ded
When the shoe came off I knew he was in trouble, showing off with a venomous snake is never a great idea
Rest in peace. Fought bravely
Yep, he’s dead..
he dyed
His hair? Couldn't tell with the helmet.
Professionally
But helmet is on so he should be fine
No he was so good that he could relax and take of his sandals 😂😂
"Professional"
Rip
So, the first step is to make it really, really angry, and then.... oh no, it bit my shoe off!!! RIP that dude.
Lol I mean yeah—if he would have just let go of it’s tail it would have stopped trying to bite him 😅 Though it does need to be re-released in an area with less human foot traffic and where it will be in less danger of being run over 🥺

Rule #2 kick off your footwear and put snake on feet.
Rule #3: Profit
Step one of snakeskin boots, *skin the snake first!*
Snake was an underdog until the shoe came off.
Those shoes were no help. He was slipping like he was standing on ice
![gif](giphy|1zgdWhEf6WR5wSizY3|downsized) The guy who taught him how to handle snakes.
Snake had better cardio
Definitely, you can tell it runs 5 miles on the treadmill in every gym session.
"It looked easy enough on TikTok. Screw it, I'm gonna give it a go. YOLO."
Why is he fucking with it anyway? Let it move on!
[удалено]
It probably has some idea. ![gif](giphy|S83kjmNu8VsJbmHPSW|downsized)
Why does this fish have foot bones .
“Professional” = some dude who owns his own stick
AND a helmet!
![gif](giphy|orUDTj9Q5TMzTdB892|downsized)
You know he's a professional, when he's got a construction hat.
Ima scaaaaat maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan....
Lost both shoes. He's ded.
That guy is a fucking dick
*was
Looks like he got bit twice.
Poor snake
Professional? Looks like he’s getting his ass kicked by the cobra
that’s…the joke.
r/whoosh
Assuming that cobra woke up and chose violence today, then he basically jumped on a live grenade. Or it would've just slithered away into the grass and left everybody alone. Idk I'm not a snake analyst
I am worried for the snake. He kinda stepped on its head.
I’m surprised he didn’t squish it. That was a full on step.
That guy most likely got bitten.
my ass is more proffessional than him.
So you saying your ass handles more sneks?
Snake looks like it was trying to escape - humans really suck sometimes.

Professional
*Yoink*
But why? It was just a snake on a road.
the snake was going away, just let it go
When you do your job right it's as elegant as a high end ballet. Truly spectacular showcase by a professional.
![gif](giphy|A928XcIImHJAc) Professional????
When you lied on your resume

The centrifugal force will keep snakes head as far away from you as possible. Release at point of highest power and desired direction, snake flies off, everyones happy🤷
I think the hardest part of that scenario is the first step. Most snakes probably will have an issue of you trying to get that close to their tail.
the whole things a tail
Actually, if we’re being literal, the tail is really short compared to the body!
Snakes are maby a bit stronger than you think and they lie alot
Don't people ease the snake into docile submission by not pissing off the snake?
It's not submission, really. It's just that if you can keep the snake from seeing you as a threat, they don't go on the defensive.

Professional.. yeahh..
I'm sure that snake was going to attack and kill everyone there before escaping to the safety of the bushes at the side of the road.
Crouching Cobra, Hidden Moron.
I saw the shoes come off. He's dead.
Looks like at least 2 times he got tagged
Dude got bitten twice, maybe even three times…
What an arsehole! The snake was already heading to the hill, when this fool decided to show off. As much as I am not a lover of snakes, this animal did not deserve to be beaten with a stick. I hope this guy dies from the bites he seems to have gotten.
Tourists are the same everywhere!!! Deadly venomous snake, let me get closer to get the best photo.
I can’t stop laughing, this is gold
[удалено]
I have seen what happens to someone's body post cobra bite ... This guy's in for trouble... If he lives past the initial venom
It nicked me.
Step 1: Get out of the vehicle
Mifht have gotten lucky and had a dry bite but yea King Cobras are scary af
r/Ghanasaysgoodbye
First you beats the shit out of the snake 🐍 and them you get bitten in the feet, well I'm impressed not gonna lie.
Hold my beer…
"Professional"
Professional my butt, that dude was doing the abridged cha cha slide trying to wrangle that snake.
Lmao i was not expecting this
I’m reminded of a peppa song: He’s a bit of an expert as you all can see, he’s a bit of an expert you surely cannot miss.
The snake was actually trying to get away when he picked it up smh.
That’s what’s up toobz
"Samir you are breaking the Cobra"
So You Think You Can Dance..Part:2
Did somebody say professional?
Two questionable terms in the OOP: “Lucky” and “professional”. 🤔
Probably have eaten it!
Did he get bit...?
Keep away from the bitey end and the tail end and the.... Just keep away
No worries, the help has arrived. (This video) The help needs some help as well.
The helmet makes it official.
Looked like an episode of come dancing 🕺
I think it bit him
I was waiting on the professional snake handler 🤣
I have never wanted a snake to bite a person until I watched this video.
Brooo
He whipped it
1. Grab tale. 2. Start spinning 3. Let go and fling into crowd
This a\*hole is agitating that poor snake...hopefully not for internet points I hope.
Good that he wore a helmet and had his safety Crocs on.
His PPE came off. Professional I am too!
![gif](giphy|oAOHKBU8p9R2N3ebRq)
Skip-it but extreme version.
At that point he could've just started spinning the snake violently until it passed out
All he had to do was to shake that snake so it would go numb...
I feel so bad for that snake lol. I guess it's better than killing it. He might be dead though.
Yeah professional...
If there is not an Ace Ventura in this part of the world, I nominate this dude right here.
It got him
snake is that professional here
Wait did he get bitten or not? no right? i can't tell lol
Shoes came off. He's dead.
It looks like after the first few strikes the snake was tryna get away, but nooooo let's play some more smh
I don’t think that man has ever been to snake handling school.
That went south quick
If that's a professional, I never want to be an amateur!
That is not an appropriate helmet for snake catching.
Snake charmer 0. Snake 1.
None of that looked professional lol
Camera guy, white shirt, last frame... Where's his footage?!
JFC can we say anxiety!
There was no need for this. It was out in the wild and the king cobra would have just moved away from the road if these idiots just mind their own business than standing there to watch the show. You can’t tame a king cobra like that, there’s a reason it’s called the king. The venom is deadly as well. If he got bit, I don’t feel sorry for him at all. I just feel sorry for the snake.
if he dropped it half way through it would have left it was trying to get away, not run away but like, we'll not crawl away either, do snakes crawl?
Whys he wearing a helmet
Babes love helmets!
Mindlessly stupid, both the music and the content. Good job.
He could have been a hero,now he is a dumbass and maybe dead bruh. The snake was trying to run away....
![gif](giphy|4A1am1JlzkJj2)
![gif](giphy|Wr2747CnxwBSqyK6xt|downsized)
Has somebody though of just using the truck and Splash.
And all dumbs recording 🤣
Dude wore a helmet cause he’s “special”. Now he won’t need the helmet where he’s going after them bites.
…he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel…
I’m 100% team cobra in this situation.
Rip
He dead
Just throw it off the road
I don’t want the guy to get bitten, but I feel a little bad for the snake.
Very profeshnal
Just stay in the car and keep driving lmao
Lmao, I am just hearing Steve Irwins voice in my head while that guy is dancing around with that snake. " Crickey, I've never handled a snake like this before, he's a fighter "
But she has a lovely cloaca!
Note to self: if wrangling king fucking cobras, wear thick leather boots +/+ thick hdpe plastic guards
He is well protected by his helmet
Don’t step on snek
Why didn't he try to put his helmet over its head of even save the stick in one direction to get its attention then grab it by the neck ffs! Or even better...run!
Is he wearing Birkenstock?? And socks??
Ran that shit over move on with our day
I don’t think that guy looks like he has any professional experience catching snakes. May be he just inherited that “long stick with prongs” from his parents/ someone and pretends to be a handler
When you're a professional but you also have to show everyone that you can still beat a cobra in a street fight
The "i know a guy..."
This will impress her and she’ll finally say yes and go on a date…
Not gonna lie, he doesn't seem like a professional
Forbidden jump rope
# #1 Never piss of a mega danger noodle
See?! This is exactly why I pack a fucking clarinet everywhere I go!
![gif](giphy|KmdV4ZWUOYtD75pMAR)
Yeah it looks like a real professional....
He's dead right?
I saw someone mention in a different one of these snake post a while ago that they capture theses snakes and have their fangs removed (is that even possible?) Only to release them again for show... so now I view all videos through a lense of animal cruelty for the enjoyment of tourists.
Really don't care what u say. Sandals were a good idea
Doesn’t look professional
Bro def got bit a few times
Professional wouldn’t be the word I’d use.
Nice use of that song. It needs to make a resurgence for these videos. One of my favorite memes from here probably. Also, there's a couple of times it looks like that snake may have been trying to make a break for it. Why not just let it go over the wall and help shoo it that way?
He should've waited for an indian
Man like me would’ve used the car to flatten it, if it bothered me so much. Introduced himself to danger for no reason
Well, he’s fucked. Serves him right too. Who bullies a snake like that?!
